This is in regards to a 2004-2005 AWD Chrysler Pacifica. There is tsb 21-020-05 out on the transfer case (ptu). This vehicle had approximately 40,000 miles on it when the problems started occurring. Chrysler recommends replacing the ptu if making noise. Chrysler was contacted on this problem by the consumer, and was denied any assistance in repairing this problem. They site it as normal 'wear and tear' of a vehicle. With such low mileage on a major component on a vehicle, this seemed to be an easy way out for Chrysler to pass this problem off to the consumer. Chrysler also states that unless you are the original owner, the 75,000 mile warranty is void. Considering how many vehicles are on a lease, this would be a very large number. This leaves many people in an unsafe condition that Chrysler has shrugged off. There are 767 posts on www.edmunds.com regarding this situation with other Pacifica owners. Not to mention those that have not posted anything on this, and have just accepted that Chrysler will not stand behind their defective product. This part is integral to the power train system, and overall drivability of the vehicle. At any time, a vehicle can become inoperable and may cause an accident resulting in injury or death. This vehicle became inoperable crossing the middle of a busy highway as the transmission/ptu suddenly became inoperable. The consequences could have been very catastrophic as other vehicles could have suddenly run into this inoperable vehicle. To correct the failure, a new ptu unit needs to be installed that has the deficiency that Chrysler admits is there, to be replaced. These repairs can exceed $2000. The old part is available.

Problem #1: ABS light comes on. When brake is pushed down, grinding noise starts, and brake does not slow car down properly. Occurs daily, multiple times. Came within inches of crashing into people, property, multiple times. Mechanic says it's wheel speed sensor & expensive to fix. We do not have the money. Problem #2: gas pedal sticks. When changing car from park to drive, gas pedal will not go down. You have to press on gas hard, thus sending the car rapidly forward or backwards, just to get it to go. Happens daily, every time I change it from park to drive. Problem #3: power steering locks up while making a turn. While making a left hand turn at an intersection, power steering locked up and could not turn the car, when I hit brakes to stop, they did not work properly either, almost sending my children & myself over an embankment. This has happened 4 times in last 3 months. Car has been looked at 3 times, with a diagnostic ran on it each time. Response is that car is unsafe to drive, park it and never get behind the wheel again, is what I have heard from all 3 mechanics. Would love to park it & save my family from harm, but it's necessary to have a car where I live, and we have no extra money to buy a new car, so there's no options. Cost to repair is already at over $800.

I purchased my car in 2008 and the dealer (sheehy Ford) won't even take it back. The engine light stays on and it won't pass inspection. I had to replace the obd connector and it still wouldn't pass inspection. Took it back to the inspection station and it failed because of the oxygen sensor, replaced that and took it back for the 3rd time and it failed again because the machine read: Monitors not ready. I'm starting to think that the power train and the engine are faulty on my vehicle. Sheehy knew they sold me a lemon, I've tried to have them resolve this issue numerous times and nothing. I want them to either fix the problem or give me another car. I reported them to the BBB as well and they never responded to BBB on my complaint. That looks so suspect in my eyes.

The transmission goes into neutral when cold or braking. This keeps re-occurring.

- Lapine, OR, USA

Vehicle has complete maintenance records since purchased from dealer. Vehicle goes into neutral when braking and making U turn. Chrysler dealership admitted to being a common problem yet defective transmission has not been recalled. Therefore, my wife and I refuse to pay to have vehicle repaired for a manufactures defect. The company should be held accountable and responsible for correcting such issue to prevent the possibility of death to a us citizen.

First noticed gas gage suddenly dropped from 3/4 tank to empty, low fuel warning and check engine light came on. Fuel gage would again rise up to full then drop to empty. Called dealer who asked for my VIN number and told me my car was not subject to recall. Gas gage is no longer functioning at all & I have no idea how much gas I have in my tank - I'm unable at this point to afford the repair. New problem has arisen, yesterday and today my car has stalled, causing me to engage park and restart my engine. First time I was going up a small hill and this morning I was maneuvering around a round about. Seems very similar to other reports on this particular model and those who have registered a complaint.

I own a 2005 Chrysler Pacifica which was manufactured, according to my dealership on June 16, 2005. I had brought the car into the dealership 11/06 because of a seat belt problem and when I was there they told me there was a recall and that they were going to take care of it. Recall F-44. I had not had any problems with the fuel pump prior to that. This week my car stalled twice. Once when turning left, once when turning right. Car was able to start up again. I brought it to the dealership (Chrysler Jeep of white plains at 70 westchester ave., white plains, NY 10601 phone: 914-946-3544). They told me I needed 2 new fuel pumps and it would cost $1210 and it was not under warranty and there was no recall notice. I did my research and found the F-44 recall online which states a fuel pump problem. I have spent the last 2 days talking to the dealership (which has my car) and daimler-Chrysler regarding the problem. The headquarters first told me my pump problem was part of the recall and that the dealership had to replace the pumps free of charge. But when the dealership talked to them they told hq that they had been directed to change the fuel pumps only on certain 2005 Pacificas. Only on ones manufactured within a certain date. They said on my 2005 Pacifica they only had to reprogram the PCM. I, as a consumer, see it that one recall was made and it was made because of a fuel pump problem which would cause a car to stall. I am having those problems. The dealership is telling me that they were actually 2 recalls - one for the fuel pump and one to reprogram. I do not see it that way - there was only 1 recall and it was for the problems I am having. They are making me pay $1210+ for a problem that was the reason for the recall in the first place !!!!!

The 2005 Chrysler Pacifica was burning oil at 1 quart per 1000 miles. The dealership took the engine apart and replaced the valve seals. This helped and slowed the oil consumption, , but did not fix it. Now the car was still burning 1 quart 1000 miles, which Chrysler claimed was perfectly normal, according to their policy. The manager at the dealership stated that this was not a problem that Pacifica's had and seemsed to be unique to this car, and a few others. Chryslerwas still refusing to fix the problem. If allowed the oil to burn at 1quart. Per 1000 miles, then at 3000 miles oil change the vehicle will be 3 quarts low, leaving only 2.5 quarts. Of oil inthe car. This was 2 quarts. Below the minimum level for safe driving according to the Chrysler Pacifica owner's manual.

There is a significant popping and clicking sound when accelerating and stopping. Also happens when moving the gear shift. Car surges forward when popping sound happens. Took to dealer and they said I had to live with it as it is a problem with the car they can not fix. So need to now what to do. Also engine stalls. This has happened twice. The first time I was at a crawl in traffic, but at an incline onto a bridge. I had my foot on the brake and then put it on the gas petal to accelerate and the car died. Lights and dash board are lit but car is shut off. Car restarted with no problem. Second time, I was parking in a spot that was again at an incline. I put the car in reverse, took my foot off the brake and stepped on the gas petal to begin driving in reverse, car died. Both times I had approximately 3/4 of a tank of gas. Also the shop don't want to give you a rental or loner car while the repairs are done.
